...Are the really going to disable sideloading in new update??
This is the most dissapointing thing imaginable. The ability to side load is the only thing that makes this device worth anything. The app world is a total joke, the hardware is not all that impressive, if you don't have a wireless conenction when you first set up your playbook you can not use the damn thing until you find one (total bull in my book to require u to have a wi-fi conenction to access the device you paid for) and if you must re setup your wi-fi and there is a connection problem during set up you risk a system wipe which has heppend to me twice.
The device just feels like it was bandoned half way in development and they just put a super low price tag to compensate.
I really hope this is only rumor and I won't lose the ability to do the only worthwhile thing on the PB in order to gain the update benifits.
Also don't give me any "gO gEt An I PaD u Loser PlAyBoOk IS fOr Us KoOl AltErnaTive PpL NoOb". Just becuz someone is unhappy with a prdouct doesn't give others the right to belittle them or assume they are an apple fan boy.
I do enjoy the PB when it is working correctly it has a beautiful screen fantastic sound quality and being able to side load apps from actually well designed tablets makes it worth the money, without this ability though it is just a crappy half a.s.s. tablet
